Even those who aren’t particularly
sympathetic to Israel ‘s Benjamin
Netanyahu, could get a good measure
of satisfaction from this interview with
British Television during the retaliation
against Hamas’ shelling of Israel .
The interviewer asked him: “How come
so many more Palestinians have been
killed in this conflict than Israelis?” (A
nasty question if there ever was one!)
Netanyahu: “Are you sure that you want
to start asking in that direction?”
Interviewer: (Falling into the trap) Why
not?
Netanyahu: “Because in World War II
more Germans were killed than British
and Americans combined, but there
is no doubt in anyone’s mind that the
war was caused by Germany’s aggression.
And in response to the German
blitz on London , the British wiped out
the entire city of Dresden , burning to
death more German civilians than the
number of people killed in Hiroshima
... Moreover, I could remind you that in
1944, when the R.A.F. tried to bomb the
Gestapo Headquarters in Copenhagen ,
some of the bombs missed their target
and fell on a
Danish children’s hospital, killing 83
little children. Perhaps you have another
question?”
Apparently, Benjamin Netanyahu gave
another interview and was asked about
Israel ‘s occupation of Arab lands.
His response was, “It’s our land”. The
reporter (CNN or the like) was stunned.
Read below … It’s important information
since we don’t get fair and accurate
reporting from the media and facts tend
to get lost in the jumble of daily events.
“CRASH COURSE ON THE ARAB-
ISRAELI CONFLICT.”
Here are overlooked facts in the current
& past Middle East situation.

THE ISRAELI CONFLICT
Quotes:
Hard work spotlights the character of
people: some turn up their sleeves,
some turn up their noses, and some
don’t turn up at all.

CONFLICT TODAY... (It takes just 1½
minutes to read!)
It makes sense and it’s not slanted. Jew
and non-Jew -- it doesn’t matter.
1. Nationhood and Jerusalem : Israel
became a nation in 1312 BC, two
thousand (2000) years before the rise of
Islam.
2... Arab refugees in Israel began identifying
themselves as part of a Palestinian
people in 1967, two decades after the
establishment of the modern State of
Israel.
3. Since the Jewish conquest in 1272
BC, the Jews have had dominion over
the land for one thousand (1000) years
with a continuous presence in the land
for the past 3,300 years.
4. The only Arab dominion since the
conquest in 635 lasted no more than 22
years.
5. For over 3,300 years, Jerusalem has
been the Jewish capital. Jerusalem has
never been the capital of any Arab or
Muslim entity. Even when the Jordanians
occupied Jerusalem , they never
sought to make it their capital, and Arab
leaders did not come to visit.
6. Jerusalem is mentioned over 700
times in Tanach, the Jewish Holy Scriptures.
Jerusalem is not mentioned even
once in the Koran.
7. King David founded the city of
Jerusalem . Mohammed never came to
Jerusalem .
8. Jews pray facing Jerusalem . Muslims
pray with their backs toward
Jerusalem .
9. Arab and Jewish Refugees: in 1948
the Arab refugees were encouraged to
leave Israel by Arab leaders promising
to purge theland of Jews. 68% left
(many in fear of retaliation by their
own brethren, the Arabs), without ever
seeing an Israeli soldier. The ones who
stayed were afforded the same peace,
civility, and citizenship rights as everyone
else.
10. The Jewish refugees were forced to
flee from Arab lands due to Arab brutality,
persecution and pogroms.
11. The number of Arab refugees who
left Israel in 1948 is estimated to be
around 630,000. The number of Jewish
refugees from Arab lands is estimated
to be the same.
12. Arab refugees were INTENTION-
ALLY not absorbed or integrated into
the Arab lands to which they fled,
despite the vast Arab territory.
Out of the 100,000,000 refugees since
World War II, theirs is the only refugee
group in the world that has never been
absorbed or integrated into their own
people’s lands. Jewish refugees were
completely absorbed into Israel , a
country no larger than the state of New
Jersey ...
13. The Arab-Israeli Conflict: the Arabs
are represented by eight separate nations,
not including the Palestinians.
There is only one Jewish nation. The
Arab nations initiated all five wars and
lost. Israel defended itself each time and
won.
14. The PLO’s Charter still calls for the
destruction of the State of Israel. Israel
has given the Palestinians most of the
West Bank land, autonomy under the
Palestinian Authority, and has supplied
them.
15. Under Jordanian rule, Jewish holy
sites were desecrated and the Jews were
denied access to places of worship. Under
Israeli rule, all Muslim and Christian
sites have been preserved and made
accessible to people of all faiths.
16. The UN Record on Israel and the
Arabs: of the 175 Security Council
resolutions passed before 1990, 97 were
directed against Israel .
17. Of the 690 General Assembly resolutions
voted on before 1990, 429 were
directed against Israel .
18. The UN was silent while 58 Jerusalem
synagogues were destroyed by the
Jordanians.
19. The UN was silent while the Jordanians
systematically desecrated the
ancient Jewish cemetery on the Mount
of Olives .
20. The UN was silent while the Jordanians
enforced an apartheid-like a
policy of preventing Jews from visiting
the Temple Mount and the Western
Wall.
These are incredible times. We have to
ask what our role should be.
What will we tell our grandchildren
about what we did when there was a
turning point in Jewish destiny, an opportunity
to make a difference?
REKENAAR TIPS
Ons het so ‘n paar weke gelede die
Google Chrome Browser behandel. ‘n
ander program wat ook gereeld gebruik
word en maklik vervang kan
word is jou email program. Standaard
by Windows XP het ons altyd Outlook
Express gebruik. Die van ons wat bietjie
meer gesofistikeerd is, het MS Outlook
gebruik, wat baie kragtig is.
Nou in die eerste plek kan ek aanraai
om van Gmail gebruik te maak. Ek
ken ook vir Hotmail en Yahoo, ek het
self Yahoo maar werk min daarmee.
Gmail gee vir my meer moontlikhede as
Yahoo.
Gmail gee vir jou vandag reeds meer as
10GB spasie om jou briewe te bêre. Die
ou e-mail servers het jou miskien 20MB
of 50MB toegelaat. As dit vol is dan
word die pos wat jou vriende stuur eenvoudig
teruggestuur: “mailbox is ful.”
Dit het met my met Gmail nog nooit
gebeur nie. Ja ek trek nou al op 50%
van my bruikbare spasie maar ek vee
gereeld ‘n klomp goed uit.
Verder het die ou e-mail server ‘n
beperkte grootte van e-pos toegelaat,
gewoonlik nie groter as 3 MB nie of
miskien nou 5 Mb per pos. Dit raak baie
gou te klein as jy so 6 fototjies in hoë
kwaliteit wil wegstuur. Goeie foto’s is al
hou groter as 2 Mb elk. Ek sal buitendien
voorstel om fotos nie groter as 1
Mb te verstuur nie tensy jy dit wil laat
druk in poster grootte. Gmail laat toe
om e-pos te stuur tot 25MB per file.

Dis maklik om by Gmail aan te
sluit en dit kos niks, in teëstelling
met baie van die ouer mail
servers.
Gaan in op jou Chrome Browser
en tik in www.gmail.com (dis nie
dot co.za nie hoor)
Jy sal iets soos die skerm heel
onder kry en klik op die CREATE
AN ACCOUNT knop.
Dan verskyn die vorm wat jy
online moet invul om die rekening
te kan skep.
Dit is nie ingewikkeld nie. Onthou
net om jou username en password
af te skryf. Jou username moet jy
so na as moontlik aan jou eie naam
kies. As jou naam Sannie Botha is,
dan is die kanse baie goed dat die
mailbox reeds geneem is en dan
moet jy ‘ander naam bedink. Moenie
sommer enige naam wat hulle
voorstel neem nie, maar probeer
iets wat tog eie aan jouself is bv.
sannie.rbotha. (r van rooikop)
Maar iets wat jou wel maklik
herkenbaar maak en jy en jou
vriende maklik kan onthou.
Lang niksseggende email name
is baie moeilik om per telefoon
aan iemand oor te dra en as daar
1 tikfout gemaak word dan gaan
die email nie deur nie. Glo my dit
gebeur daagliks dat mense vir my
‘n email adres gee en dit kom net
weer trug.
Die volgende stap is om die twee
woorde in te tik. Dit kan hoofletter
gevoelig wees, so probeer om dit so
akkuraat as moontlik in te tik. Moenie
moedeloos word
as jy dit nie die
eerste keer regkry
nie, ek kry dit ook
nie altyd reg om
die letters te ontsyfer
nie. As ek
dit so bekyk dan
lyk dit vir my op
Passoun when.
Die current email
address wat hulle
vra is vir ingeval
jy jou paswoord
inligting kwytraak.
Dan kan
hulle dit na die
ander email adres
stuur.
Is alles reg ingetik dan verkyn die
volgende blad wat jou help om ‘n paar
sekuriteits maatreels in te stel. Jou telefoon
nommer is ‘n baiebelangrike deel
daarvan omdat mens jou paswoord kan
kwytraak en nie by die ander email addres
kan uitkom omdat dit dalk nie jou
email adres is nie, dan gee jy die opdrag
vir Gmail om vir jou ‘n sms te stuur.
Aan die hand van die sms kan Gmail
dan weer jou posbus toeganklik maak
deur vir jou weer ‘n kode te stuur sodat
jy jou paswoord kan herstel.
Hierdie funksies is belangrik vir as jy
jou inligting kwytraak en dit gebeur
regtig.
Try Gmail uit, volgende keer vertel ek
meer oor die gebruik daarvan.
